The player pathway for women and girls
This factsheet will assist coaches and clubs in developing the player pathway for women in their sport.
We need to better recognise that women and girls take up sport at many different ages and life stages. Governing bodies need to ensure that women of all ages are encouraged and supported to progress and reach their potential. After they have reached their peak, sports should also ensure that they are not lost to the sport.
How should NGBs work with women and girls
There is no one-size fits all approach to the perfect NGB for women and girls. Each sport is different, each governing body will know its own sport better than anyone else, and each will need to do things slightly differently according to historical circumstances, current situation and future ambition. This factsheet describes the core elements which the WSFF believe should be suitable for most, if not all, NGBs.
